wha...Wha...WHAT?????

What?...buying a house is hard work?

BOO HISSY! I do not like this at all.

Yes, for those of you who did not know, Justin and
I are AGAIN into the rat race from hence homes are
bought and sold. (or in our case... a shamefully small
townhouse near campus) Closing costs? Pre-paid
costs? Warrenty? Inspections? Appraisals?...Good
grief does it come with free food for life and a TV?...
it should! AND....could the market in Northwest Arkansas
be ANY MORE EXPENSIVE?? I'm surprised we were
able to find anything at all with the $ amount we were
pre-approved at. I thought there for a little while
that we would be living in a shoe, ok, maybe a shack.
But I mean COME ON...a shack? That was always
the lowest you could live in on the "M.A.S.H." game as a
giddy little school girl. (mansion, apartment, shack, house...)

Well, here are the facts...we made an offer (which
was VERY reasonable in our eyes) and they "countered".
OH COME ON!!!! You're supposed to read the offer,
say "oh my thats fabulous", accept the offer,
we all sit, drink hot tea, and eat scones. Jolly good time!
OH BUT NO........ it has to be WAY HARDER! Fine,
we'll see your offer, and add some more. SO THERE!
If we don't get it, we'll be upset, but we'll move on.
RIGHT?...right!

ENCOURAGEMENT PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SERENITY NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GOODNESS GRACIOUS GIRLFRIEND!!!! I had no idea!
Isn't it just depressing? As you know, Stu and I were briefly "house/condo shopping", and WHAT IS UP WITH NORTHWEST ARKANSAS???!! #$@$#%@$#@!!
You could buy a huge suburb home in Tulsa for the cost of a dinky little historic house down the street from my workplace. GOOD GRIEF!
Stu and I gave up on the whole "buying a place" thing for now. Too stressful. We're too poor. NWA is too expensive for now.
Shelli, hang in there!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's do a movie soon!!!!!
